The Tahoe League for Charity April meeting will be held on April 14 at Jake’s on the Lake in Tahoe City. The April speaker will feature the Truckee River Weed Warriors, a volunteer program led by the Truckee River Watershed Council.

Excursions such as “weed walks” educate the public on how to find, report and dispose of invasive weeds that are not indigenous to Lake Tahoe and Truckee.

These weeds damage water quality, out-compete native plants, degrade plant and animal habitat and increase the risk of wildland fire.
